Connecting an HDMI-incompatible device
Connecting a record player
You can enjoy playing records.
• This unit is compatible with record players with an MM cartridge. When you connect to a record player
with an MC cartridge, use a commercially available MC head amp or a step-up transformer.
• If you set this unit’s input source to “PHONO” and increase the volume without connecting the record
player, there may be a “booming” noise from the speakers.
NOTE
The SIGNAL GND terminal of this unit is not a safety ground connection. Connect it to reduce noise when
noise is excessive. Note that depending on the record player, connecting the ground line may have the
reverse effect of increasing noise. In this case, it is not necessary to connect the ground line.
